Another fragrant beauty that is contributing to the strong scent in my shadehouse. Blc. Goldenzelle 'Ambrosia' x C. forbesii 'Lucent Green'....It gets pinker, almost to a salmon color, before it withers.

She's gorgeous! I love that color and the lip is is pretty classy, too! The flowers look pretty big, what do they measure?

Great growing!!!

Thanks David.....I got it at Rozanski's House of orchids last year. Don't know if he would have any, now. This one is ready to divide (after the blooms finish)...if you really want one, I'm sure we can trade for something. If your interested, I'll put a note on it, so I can remember to cut you off a piece!
